From one of the 247 Texas mods:

LSU OL commit Kardell Thomas told me he plans to visit Alabama this summer. The 2019 recruit is solid to LSU but wants to get a closer look at Bama and meet with the staff.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — It's just the beginning for Antwan Burnett. This young man has a chance to be Mr. Football and Mr. Basketball for the state of Alabama if he chooses to play both sports long enough. He scored 15 touchdowns last fall, then averaged over 20 points per game in the winter as a freshman. He sprinkled in a couple of 40-point games in there too.

The 6-foot-4, 200 pound athlete is different. He will not only have options in terms of scholarships, but he will have options in sports too. While around Montgomery recently, coaches raved about Burnett and his ability and potential on the gridiron and the hard court.

Burnett is shining in basketball right now playing on the AAU circuit, but his first three offers in either sport have come as a football prospect. Florida offered first, then Alabama and Georgia followed. All came in recently, around the same time.

The Gators have won national titles on the football field and basketball court in the last 10 years and although he has not spent time in Gainesville (Fla.), he knows a little about the Florida program.

"I think about Tim Tebow and those years when I think about Florida," said Burnett. "I have not been there, but I watched them play on T.V. and I know they have a good team with good players. I like the way they play."

Alabama and Florida have matched up often for SEC championships in football over the years and Burnett has now visited the in-state school twice.

The first visit was for the Iron Bowl late last fall and he was recently there to take in a spring practice. The Crimson Tide has impressed him.

"The facilities there are really nice, I like the people there and the Iron Bowl was great. The crowd was so loud at the game and it was a lot of fun. I got the campus tour when I was there a few weeks ago and everything was nice. It is a school that wants everything to be perfect."

Burnett does not know much about Georgia yet, but he would like to get to Athens (Ga.) this summer if his AAU schedule allows him to. His offer list is going to grow in the coming months and he will have offers in two sports before long.

He is just taking it all in stride right now.

"You just have to stay humble," said Burnett. "As quick as I got the offers, they can be taken away, so I just have to keep working."

Here's a Robertson quote from this weekend:

quote:

"I went with Demetris on almost all the school visits," Robertson said. "Bama probably would have been his pick after Cal. Demetris told me that I am a different athlete than he was. I'm a little bigger. He just said to look at the school and environment then look at the program to see if it will make me better at my position."

Daniel Carson, 3-star SDE, Independence (Mo.) William Christian --

Alabama stopped by Carson's high school on Wednesday and saw enough to pull the trigger on an offer Friday. A number of the nation's top programs are after the Midwest defensive lineman. Missouri currently hold the 247Sports Crystal Ball edge. Last season, Carson posted 13 sacks.

ATLANTA — Jo'Quavious Marks rushed for 1,246 yards and a dozen touchdowns as a freshman at Carver High and the 5-foot-11, 178 pound running back has put his name on the recruiting map.

It has been very active this spring at Carver and many coaches wanted to take a look at the rising sophomore. The state of Georgia has some talented running backs who have already emerged in the 2020 class and Marks looks to be one of the best.

Syracuse was first to offer May 3, then it was Kansas State May 5. Alabama is the most recent offer and the Crimson Tide offered May 8.

"It is exciting to get these offers and it is just going to push me to work harder to get more," said Marks. "Getting the first one was big, but each time I have found out about an offer, it is has been pretty exciting."

He does not know much about the Orange or Wildcats yet, but he has already visited Tuscaloosa (Ala.) and the Crimson Tide are close to home, so he knows about Nick Saban's program.

"I like how they use their running backs and how they produce running backs at Alabama. They use multiple backs, switching them in and out and they have sent a lot to the NFL. I also like how organized they are and how they win."

Georgia, LSU and Ohio State are schools Marks named when asked about others he hopes to add offers from. One of those was his childhood favorite.

"I have always like Georgia a lot," said Marks. "I love Todd Gurley, I have watched him a lot and I have been there before. I love the crowd, they show players love and I like the coaches there too.

"They always have good running backs, they get the ball to their guys and it is a school I would love to get an offer from."

Marks plans to camp at Georgia this summer.

I must have missed this offer because there is no way in hell I would forget a name like Jo-Quavious.

Harold Joiner did not make it to campus on Sunday and doesn't know if he'll come this week either.
